COLDWATER — Shawn Haller, 37, went back to jail Monday — arrested after his arraignment in Circuit Court for marijuana growing after new charges of possession of meth lab components were filed against him.

Branch County District Judge Brent Weigle set bond on Haller's new charges at $200,000 cash or surety after Coldwater Police officers found meth lab components and traces of the drug in Haller's vehicle Sept. 4.

CPD Sgt. Nick Thornton was tipped off Haller was trying to steal some lye — used to cook meth — from the Family Fare store on North Marshall Street. When Thornton stopped the car for an obstructed license plate ammonium nitrate, which is used to make meth, was in the seat. A search turned up other meth-related materials. A coffee filter and glass pipe tested positive for the drug.

Kyle Cole told officers the meth and materials belong to Haller. She said she smoked the drug with him.

Haller was charged with possession of meth lab components and possession of the drug. Because of his 1998 conviction in Indiana federal court for delivery of meth and a 1994 conviction for attempted larceny in a building in Branch County, the maximum 20- and 10-year penalties are doubled.

Haller, a local bartender, was arrested in March when CPD officers went to his Hudson Street home to serve a warrant for failure to appear on charges of illegal purchase of pseudophedrine. Officers found 45 marijuana plants growing in Haller's basement in two grow rooms and 70 ounces of the drug. He was charged with manufacturing the drug and maintaining a drug house, four- and two-years felonies doubled because of the prior convictions.
